Easy way to share Jesus.



One of the simple ways to share our faith in Jesus is called the Roman Road. Very easy to understand and very easy to do. Lt me share it with you this morning and then I pray you will put it to use to bring others to Jesus for salvation.

1. Romans 3:23-for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Plain and simple verse that reveals we are all sinners! Every single one of us. We do not meet up to what God wants from us because we are sinners.

2. Romans 6:23-For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Because we a sinners we will die. We will die physically one day and we are already dead spiritually because we are sinners before a holy God who can not be in the presence of sin. 

BUT God has a free gift for us! Don’t we all like gifts??? That gift is Jesus and if we will receive Jesus as Lord and Savior we can have eternal life and be forgiven of our sins and thus be in God’s presence in heaven for eternity after we die physically!

3. Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Get them to think about what you have said so far. God loves us so much that He has shown us His love in that while we were dirty, rotten, sinners before Him, He sent His only Son, Jesus, to leave heaven and take on human form for the sole purpose of living a perfect life on earth so He could take our sins upon the cross and die so we can be saved! A blood sacrifice had to made to cover our sin so we can be in the presence of God and Jesus paid it all!!! That is how much God loves us!

4. So what do you have to do to be saved?

Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Confess to God you are sinner, tell God you believe Jesus is Lord and Savior, believe that Jesus died on the cross for you, was buried, and rose on the third day defeating death and sin. If you truly believe these things you will be saved according to God’s Word! 

Ask them would you like to do that?

5. Know this: Romans 10:13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

If you call upon Jesus as Lord, you will be saved!!!

If they call upon Jesus as Lord, it is now your job to help them grow which is called discipling them. It is a must! Teach them about baptism, Lord’s Supper, prayer, bible study, importence of church and Sunday School, tithing, serving, meeting needs, and loving others. We fail in discipleship so often and many fall way because they do not know what to do next!

I hope this is useful to you and if you called upon Jesus as Lord let me know so I can help you!
